Over the weekend, tragedy struck a Wiz Khalifa concert in Mountain View, CA, when a man was shot backstage. He later died on Saturday morning (August 23). The potential for violence continued last night when Khalifa's tourmate Jeezy was arrested for possession of a weapon.

According to TMZ, Jeezy was arrested for possession of an assault rifle. While details are scarce, the rifle was discovered while police were investigating Jeezy's tour bus in connection with Friday's shooting.

Jeezy wasn't the only one to get booked either — TMZ reports that multiple members of his entourage were also arrested for gun possession.

The rapper's bail has been set at $1 million, and he's still locked up. This marks the second time Jeezy was arrested this year following an arrest for false imprisonment, battery and "making terroristic threats" back in January.
